Published: Jan. 30, 2021, 1:07 p.m.

Back in the days before aliens took on the form of the standardized \u201cGrey\u201d model, they came in all shapes and sizes. UFOlogists called them \u201chumanoids,\u201d and there was a wave of them in France in 1954. In 1955 they started popping up in the United States and worldwide. Many UFOlogists, who were trying to convince the scientific community that the mystery was worth studying, tended to reject humanoid reports. Some, such as Coral and Jim Lorenzen of the Aerial Phenomena Research Organization, kept an open mind as long as the humanoids didn\u2019t talk. If a witness reported they had had a conversation and were taken to another planet, that case was tossed into the\xa0contactee pile. However, there was a case in the seventies that made the Lorenzens and a lot of other researchers rethink their position. On Oct. 25, 1974, Rawlins, Wyoming resident Carl Higdon decided to take the day off from his job as foreman for an oil drilling crew. One of his \u201ckey men\u201d was sick with the flu and he didn\u2019t think anything would be accomplished that day. It was the peak of elk hunting season, and he had just bought a 7mm Remington Magnum rifle, so he probably didn\u2019t have to think for too long about how he would be spending the day. He loaded up his company\u2019s two-wheel drive pickup truck and headed for McCarty Canyon in Carbon County.
